General's Highway Athletic Association of Annapolis, Rolling Knolls and Crownsville exists to instill leadership and promote the concept of teamwork among our children while ensuring all players gain confidence, build skills, play equally and have fun.

The Annapolis Open® Baseball Tournament began operating in 2005 with the first tournament held in March 2006 at General's Highway Corridor Park in conjunction with Riva Park. The Open is in memory of Officer Grant Turner, a young man who loved baseball in his brief and illustrious life and supports the Grant Turner Memorial Fund which sponsors college scholarships in Grant's name1.

The Annapolis Open is planned for the last full weekend of March and is sponsored by General's Highway Athletic Association, Mid Atlantic Tournament Baseball, the Maryland Diamond Umpires Association, members of the Maryland Transportation Authority Police (MDTA Police), and Phil and Nancy Turner and family.

The Tournament is fielding teams in 9U, 10U, 11U, 12U, 13U and 14U age categories. 'A' and 'B' brackets when there are 12 or more teams in an age category.
